David Harewood MBE (born 8 December 1965) is an English actor. He trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. He is known for playing CIA Counterterrorism Director David Estes in Homeland (2011–12), and J'onn J'onzz/Martian Manhunter and Hank Henshaw/Cyborg Superman in Supergirl (2015–present).[2]
Early life and education
Harewood was born and grew up in Small Heath, Birmingham, England. His parents are originally from Barbados, and moved to England in the late 1950s and early 1960s. His father was a lorry driver and his mother worked as a caterer. He has a sister Sandra and two brothers, Rodger and Paul. He attended St Benedict's Junior School and Washwood Heath Academy.[3][4] He was a member of the National Youth Theatre. In his youth, he worked in a wine bar, Albert's in Dale End, in Birmingham City Centre.[5][6] At 18, Harewood gained a place at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.[5]
Career
Harewood began acting in 1990 and has appeared in The Hawk, Great Moments in Aviation, Harnessing Peacocks, Mad Dogs and Englishmen, Blood Diamond, The Merchant of Venice and Strings. He is known for his television appearances on Ballykissangel, The Vice and Fat Friends. He played Don Coleman in Hustle (Series 7 The Fall of Railton FC (2011)).[7]
In 2008, he played Major Simon Brooks in The Palace; he also appeared (that December) on Celebrity Mastermind, with specialist subject Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials – and he appeared in the BBC film adaptation of the Philip Pullman novels The Ruby in the Smoke and The Shadow in the North, both of which are titles from the Sally Lockhart Mysteries.[7]
In 2009, Harewood appeared in the BBC single drama Mrs Mandela, playing Nelson Mandela. He played Brother Tuck in the third series of Robin Hood.[8] He appeared in the Doctor Who story The End of Time. He played Martin Luther King in the premiere of The Mountaintop, written by American playwright Katori Hall, directed by James Dacre, which opened at Theatre503 in London on 9 June 2009.[9][10]
Harewood next appeared in two episodes of Chris Ryan's Strike Back as Colonel Tshuma. From June to September 2010, he played Theseus in the premiere of Moira Buffini's play Welcome to Thebes at the National Theatre in London.[11] He played Martin Viner in an episode of New Tricks.[12] He narrates Welcome to Lagos, a BBC documentary about Lagos. He also starred in British independent film, The Hot Potato,[13] the film also starred Ray Winstone, Colm Meaney and Jack Huston.[citation needed] He played Frankenstein's monster in the TV live event Frankenstein's Wedding.[7]
From 2011, Harewood starred as David Estes, the director of the CIA's Counterterrorism Center, in the Showtime series Homeland. After appearing in 24 episodes, his character was killed off in a bomb explosion at the end of season 2.[2] Also in 2011, he voiced Captain Quinton Cole in the video game Battlefield 3.
In the 2012 New Year Honours, Harewood was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for services to drama.[14][15][16]
In May 2012, he presented a Party Election Broadcast for the British Labour Party.[17]
In October 2013, Harewood voiced an interactive video campaign for the British Lung Foundation aiming to ban smoking in cars with children on board in the United Kingdom.[18]
In June 2014, he appeared in Tulip Fever.[19]
In October 2015, he appeared as a core cast member on the CBS television series Supergirl as Hank Henshaw. Since his character was revealed (in the episode Human for a Day) to be J'onn J'onzz/Martian Manhunter posing as Henshaw, he portrays J'onn J'onzz with Henshaw's likeness as his human form and has a dual recurring role as the real Hank Henshaw / Cyborg Superman.
Personal life
Harewood married long-term partner Kirsty Handy in Saint James, Barbados in February 2013. The couple have two daughters.[20] The family lives in Streatham, London.[1] Harewood is a staunch Birmingham City F.C. fan.[2][21]
In 2007, David visited Harewood House in Yorkshire and spoke with Viscount Lascelles who is a cousin of the Queen. David's surname "Harewood" comes from the time when his ancestors were sold in Africa, transported to the Caribbean as slaves, and forced to work for the Lascelles family (the Earls of Harewood). Lord Lascelles explained that his wish was for the Harewood name to stand for positive things in the future, as nothing could be done about what happened 250 years ago.[22]
In 2007, Harewood donated his bone marrow and as a result saved the life of a patient.[23]
Harewood is a mental health ambassador and has been open about his personal struggles, confessing that he used to self-medicate with alcohol in order to deal with his manic depressive and bipolar-like symptoms, discarding the medication given to him by doctors. He later spent time on the Whittington Hospital psychiatric ward and was prescribed the antipsychotic drug largactil.[24] He subsequently expanded on his experiences by hosting a BBC documentary titled David Harewood: My Psychosis and Me
He appeared in Soccer Aid 2018 as England’s celebrity goalkeeper. Harewood saved two penalties during the penalty shoot out, helping England to win the charity match. The event raised more than £5,000,000 for UNICEF, a charity which Harewood supports and has appeared in videos for.
